Im sick of people being like ew tofu like grow up it’s just flavorless bean cheese, if it tastes bad you didn’t marinate it properly
^
if the flavor sponge tastes bad then it’s either gone off or you soaked it in things that taste bad
Or it was just cooked wrong so it’s a blob of slimy, disintegrating goop. I understand a lot of restaurants in the US also just don’t cook it correctly or season it so most people’s initial exposure to it is on par with something like being served undercooked chicken albeit with a lower (though not zero) chance of food poisoning.
tofu has really gotten a lot more affordable as US soy prices have cratered
$2 per lb. I’m waiting for it to hit $1.50 so I can load up and freeze it.
Putting all my money on shorting tofuturesI see it for 5cad for 4lb at my local asian grocer
Little corn starch and a shallow fry with some spicy mayo is just 😙🤌🫴
its ok. but have you ever had a potatoe ?
just like me fr fr
I got to try stinky tofu for the first time during my China trip, and omg I got addicted, that shit is so good.
i love tofu but cant bring myself to eat anything that’s stinky. is it actually stinky?
To Chinese people it is stinky, to me it wasn’t. I grew up around very stinky cheese, maybe that’s why. For me it was only flavourful.
They fry the tofu blocks and serve them in a soup with some veggies, it’s delicious.
This is the Chongqing variant, so as is tradition in Chongqing they add tons of chilli peppers to everything.
Many different varieties too.
Tofu is love, tofu is life
oh e oh killer tofuuuuu

The wonderful thing about not liking the more aggressively fermented tofu is it means I get to enjoy all the soft lovely fresh tofu. Nom nom nom. Give me more delicious cubes.
I have yet to try tofu. I have a brick of it in the fridge but always forget about it or never know what to do with it…
Tofu my beloved.
A little slice of sodomy please…
Can i fuck myself even though fucking loooove tofu (I have a hard time resisting not munching it raw while I prepare it)?
i have never eaten tofu. and i know i may not be the right person to say this given my stance on becoming vegan, but isnt tofu like really bad for the environment due to huge sections of forrests being burnt to make place for the plantations?
No.
Most soy in the world (by a fairly large margin) is grown for animal feed.
ah thank you for correcting me.
you ever had tofu where they made it in front of you?
Tofu is one of my favorite foods but the idea of using it for dessert still scares me
Have you never had sweetened soy milk? You can make sweet tofu that’s soft like a bowl of jelly.
I suppose I do like soy milk… I dont think I’d like the texture of a soft, jelly-like tofu though. I always freeze and press mine
If you have something similar to aeroplane jelly wherever you’re from it’s similar. You usually have it with a sweet syrup.
It’s just like crème brulé or custard or whatever. Milky and sweet.
do you have any recipes you could recommend?
Douhua with ginger syrup is a mainstay for hundreds of millions of people.
